This parent-powered program allows families to attend together and cooperate with other parents to design activities. Members in this program will have access to our classrooms, resources, and outdoor facilities, including our forest school and playground; families are also invited to participate in our after-program clubs, monthly field trips, and annual parties.

Create a community with your friends and design lessons or activities as you see fit. Our Directors will be available for guidance and resource requests. Parents will be responsible for planning, set-up, oversight of children, and clean-up. You can choose to join a session with no obligation to continue after each session. Pre-registration is required; no drop-in days.

Resources to support cooperative activities include:

  • Manipulatives
  • Imaginative Play tools
  • Curriculum & Lessons
  • Non-Expendable Supplies
  • Gross Motor equipment
  • Athletic equipment
  • Kitchen with supplies
  • Over 100 tabletop games
  • Nintendo Switch and Games
  • Chromebooks with Internet Access
  • User accounts for our subscription-based education software
